Reduced Bers boundaries of Teichm\"uller spaces

We consider a quotient space of the Bers boundary of Teichm\"{u}ller space, which we call the reduced Bers boundary, by collapsing each quasi-conformal deformation space into a point. This reduced Bers boundary turns out to be independent of the basepoint, and the action of the mapping class group on the Teichm\"{u}ller space extends continuously to this boundary. We show that every auto-homeomorphism on the reduced Bers boundary comes from an extended mapping class. We also give a way to determine the limit in the reduced Bers boundary up to some ambiguity for parabolic curves for a given sequence in the Teichm\"{u}ller space, by generalising the Thurston compactification.
